Update client application from server

[prija]

Hello!
How to update my new version of client application and reports from server, every time when client start his client application. My idea is, when client start his clinet application to look on server to find version of application, if the version is new, to automaticli start transfer new version of aplication and other things(reports,pictures,etc.) to his PC.

You could get the client to lead the app remotly.

Alternatively don't load the app - load a loader which loads the app. This loader chaecks the version, copies everything over then loads the app.

Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.

I think this problem or similar ones have been discussed a few times in this forum - using filesystemobject & datecreated or versioninfo. thread222-666322 is an example that might prove useful.
